US companies request Supreme Court to skip waiting for appeals court ruling and expedite the trial of Trump tariff case.

The U.S. Supreme Court has been asked to consider striking down broad tariffs imposed by President Trump, drawing the Supreme Court justices into a high-stakes battle that could have global economic implications for the first time. Two educational toy manufacturers have said they filed their request on Tuesday, hoping to expedite the review process in court. This move could potentially lead to a final decision by the Supreme Court before the end of the year. The petition asks the Supreme Court to take the unusual step of hearing the case without waiting for a ruling from the federal appeals court. In a separate case, the federal appeals court has said that the tariffs will remain in effect until the relevant groups hear arguments on July 31. These two companies believe that Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs has significant economic impact, and therefore judges should intervene immediately.
